The company said that most parts remain unaffected, but a small portion of exports may face a tariff impact of about $0.5 million. Based on the current exchange rate, this translates to around ₹44 crore.
Suprajit clarified that the assessment was made in consultation with its customs advisers in the US.
In the April-June quarter of FY26, Suprajit Engineering reported revenue of ₹773 crore, a margin of 12.8%, and a profit of ₹48 crore. The possible tariff impact of ₹44 crore amounts to about 5.7% of its Q1FY26 revenue.
Speaking to CNBC-TV18 earlier this month, Suprajit said it remains confident of achieving its double-digit revenue growth guidance for FY26, despite a slow start to the year.
K Ajith Kumar Rai, Founder and Chairman of Suprajit Engineering, said the first quarter’s softer performance was not a concern. “The first quarter is typically a slightly weak quarter in the automotive industry… the festival season is just about starting, and the global business, hopefully, at least in the second half, will be a lot more stable after the tariff issues are taken care of,” he explained.
Rai also said that about 70% of the company’s business in the region is tariff-free under the USMCA (United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement), and most of the remaining tariffs will be passed on to customers.
Meanwhile, the controls division, Suprajit’s largest, continues to outperform the industry despite a global automotive slowdown. It saw margins improve from 8% to 12% year-on-year.
Following today’s update, shares of Suprajit Engineering were trading 1% higher at ₹449.35. The stock has gained over 12% in the last six months.
